Dear Journal,
I am fighting so hard for the freedom of the black community. I am not fighting alone though, I am in the presence of every single person of the African American dissent. It started with receiving a phone call about an elderly woman named Rosa Parks. She had been arrested for not giving up her seat in the front of the bus for a white person. She was told to go to the back of the bus or sit there and be arrested. I believe she did the right thing. She did not just accept the fact that black are treated as lesser human beings. She fought for civil rights of all African Americans, as will I. Rosa Parks gave me the power to step forward. I participated in a boycott against civil obedience, the boycott was a success. He Supreme Court declared segregation on buses unconstitutional, and therefore gave hope to the entire community and myself that times were changing.




Dear Journal,
We are fighting so very hard for our freedom, the black community and myself, that is. Since the Supreme Court has declared that segregation was unconstitutional many things have changed. For one, I have gotten many death threats and arrest of the white cops. But it is all worth it, we will change the world. This big change also caused people all over the world to realize what was really happening. How the black community is being treated. I have become the leader of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference; we coordinate the major civil rights activities. People see the way I am acting as hope, they too are joining in on my nonviolent ways to disobey the civil laws. My fellow people have even granted me with an even greater prize. The international moral recognition of our entire movement, the Nobel Peace Prize. I gave the entire sum of fifty-four thousand dollars to the movement. I would not have been able to make some sort of change if it hadn’t been for the community, I thank them all.


Dear Journal,
The way that society needed to be changed was in a passive way. There were many boycotts, speeches, sit ins, ect. Every single way was nonviolent, which is why it was so successful. But there are many things that happened because of this fight. I was jailed, and beaten, and even threatened to be killed. Did I let the scare me though? Absolutely not. If anything it gave me motivation to keep moving, to keep giving hope to these people who have never even dreamed of the day where there was equality. The people around me see this fight I am fighting as changing the world, it is magnificent. I give hope and faith to everyone around me, and I will do so until the day I die.
Dear Journal,




Everything I have done was well worth it. I have started the change for freedom and equality amongst the black community. I hope that my speeches have gave everyone hope to keep on fighting. There will always be prejudice people or things in the world. I hope that my time spent in jail, getting beatings, being the target of all these bad things have shown people that yes, bad things may happen; but out of those bad things come even greater changes. Breaking the law is only good when you are trying to set an example for the rest of the people. I did it to show that there should be no thing as segregation. People were made equal, and that’s how they should be treated. We will fight for freedom forever.
